How did they get it down?

The way they are approaching it and not immediately going in I don't think he is in there

He's not in there, they just popped it and not even looking inside the capsule. ****, he had to have fallen out. Just confirmed he's not in there.

It came down on it's own, really softly too, just floated after it hit about 70 ft. It was 5,500+ at one time.

Wow, did not know that this family and boy was on that show "Wife Swap", watch that all the time. Now the search begins for him, hopefully he fell out immediately, they said this thing would have only took a minute to get up 1,000 or so feet.

Basket for balloon is missing. Now they think it came loose from the balloon and crashed somewhere.

I must have missed it..

Does anyone know how he ended up in the balloon?!?

The last I heard they didnt even think he was ever in the balloon. Then one ballon expert siad a balloon that size wouldnt lift a kid. I hope it turns out well. Finally saw it on news that was a odd looking balloon. I was picturing a kid in a big birthday balloon or something.
